[smokeping-users] 3 issues: configure, timer, and debian package in smokeping 2.3.6

[TS Lura]

Dear smokeping community,

Maybe you guys could tell me if this is a bug or not. And/or if it has been
fixed in a later release.

1. Configure
----------------------------------------------------------------

I am running Debian testing (squeeze), and I have apt-get installed
smokeping.

I had problems with getting the charts to show.  At first I got the tiny
overview charts, but not the larger detailed one.

After going RavingRabbit on my system I found out that:



This works
--------------------------------
Config, Targets file:
--------------------------------
++ googlecouk

menu = google.co.uk
title = google.co.uk
host = google.co.uk
--------------------------------


This does not work

--------------------------------
++ google.co.uk

menu = google.co.uk
title = google.co.uk
host = google.co.uk
--------------------------------

2. Timer
----------------------------------------------------------------
I use the EchoPingHttp probe as well, and I get these errors sometimes.

Mar  3 01:37:36 pwwrpad smokeping[9285]: EchoPingHttp:
www.thewebsite.comtimeout (6 s) reached, killing the probe.

Is there a way to increase the timer?


3. Debian package, testing(squeeze)
----------------------------------------------------------------

And rrdtools did not get installed when I did the apt-get install smokeping.
I also had to go into the smokeping.cgi and set the lib pointer to rrdtools
up manually.
On purpose?


Anyways thanks for the good software!


Cheers,

TSLura
